“Wars bloody Armies, but battle scars it’s soldiers.” The Clone Wars was the most bloodiest conflict that the Galaxy has seen, and tragically the Clones suffered the most and yet no one the Senate speak about it or the Holonet. Instead, both the Senate and the Holonet only sings praises for the Supreme Chancellor for his actions in the Clone Wars, and its makes me wonder what the average people in the Republic really thought of Palpatine. Did the Republic turning to the Empire was made by only a powerful few idiotic senators who never went back to their home worlds, or were they really in love with Palpatine that much that they couldn’t seen that on his watch the Capital of the Republic was attack.
Inquisitor Garza no the sith or mandalorian wars were more brutal for the galaxy because it was actually people and not droids and replaceable clones fighting it.
@@Normalguy1690 Screw you, the Clones aren't so easily replaced, not to mention that many Planets had Civil Wars where no Clones or Droids took part, but was still part of the Clone Wars regardless
@@MMM-wg2vm Nah, destroying 5 planets is nothing, plenty of worlds were devastated in the Clone Wars, doesn't matter if they're entirely blown up or not.
@Ali Yousefzadeh They were troopers who served under the Inquisitors and specialized in countering force users, the initial ranks of the purge troopers were made up of the last batch of clone troopers
Star Wars Episode 1: Maul: It's over, Obi-Wan! I have the high ground! Obi-Wan: Nope! *Maul gets cut in half* Obi-Wan: It isn't the high ground that lets me win... it's the fact that *I* have it...
If you watch the episodic films, every time Obi is on the same elevation as his opponent, he loses (Dooku twice and Vader), but every time he's at a different elevation (Maul and Anakin) he wins.
"To deal with the anti-air guns [...] he called in air support." ... Now i get why some clones thought the Jedi were insuitable for their roles as commanding generals. I guess i would have had the same opinion at least after this sick move by General Kenobi.
@Wahid Rashidov Yes your right of course. I mean the writers are only human, too. One can't expect, that it always makes 100% sense, and it is still fantasy, so it's just fine.
Yet Obi-Wan was the most successful Jedi General in the Clone Wars. Not much is known about the battle so maybe he did have a plan? It's certainly not the first time TCW has shown some very idiotic tactical choices in war
Calling in air support to deal with anti-air isn't unheard of, at least not in our world. It was done during the First Gulf War - when Iraq had the most missile defense systems in the world, especially over Baghdad. As long as you're out of radar range, or actively jamming it, you can generally hit AA guns with bombs or A2G missiles. Obi Wan wasn't as stupid as he seemed.
@@ntfoperative9432 that’s pretty much my major criticism of the clone wars, practically every battle is a victory. an arc where the GAR is left absolutely devastated would be amazing
Sarrish..that battle that the clone commando in the clone wars show talked about as a massacre..if im also not mistaken? Edit: yyyep. Thought so. Gregor.
Imagine you have entire planet to land on but you choose to land right on top of enemy AA positions... No suprise some clones were so trigger happy during Order 66.
Is there a reason why we've never seen any orbital bombardments during some of these invasions? I may be mistaken but I don't remember ever hearing about that as a battle tactic.
Most bases have shield generators (like the one at hoth). When they are activated, it’s practically impossible to bombard the base. Actually, the reason ozzel died was because he took out Vader’s fleet too early, and none of the ships could bombard the planet at the range where they were efficiently, giving the rebels time to activate defenses while the imperials went to their places.
I know people love Cody and he’s one of the best, but I feel like his survival in this battle is the result of plot armor. When he climbed the rock spike he could just as easily been killed like his 3 comrades.
When you said Obi-Wan ordered an air attack on AA positions I immediately thought 'Hang on, we're smarter than this' I honestly can't believe he would do that.
They should've sent in scouts first in order to see how well defended the place was instead of understimating the enemy. Later sent in the commandos to disrupt the defenses before doing the full scale assault. That way the enemy is weakened. Finally all out attack with less casualties( wish there were none for the clones, but in war there's always death and suffering, you live with those horrifying memories. Feel guilt whether you did something stupid or not in which caused massive looses. Seeing your brothers die one by one is something you dont wanna see in your memories. You either carry that memory and learn from it or remember it till you go insane. Your past defines you. See the error of your ways. By that your character gets strengthened or destroyed. All you have to do is fight and survive each day. Make sure that those around you dont suffer the same thing or make the same mistake as you did. Memories come and go. Use them to become someone better). They could've attacked from behind. Or atleast orbital bombard the defenses or the shit out of that place. Misnagement as all wars as usual.
“Doesn’t surprise me, the war took my left arm and my left eye. Somehow, I turned out okay. The Kaminoans had cruel leaders, but amazing doctors, bioengineers, and decent equipment. That battle looked particularly bad, though. Glad I wasn’t there.” -ARF/CT-8711-12 “Cheng”, Captain And Scout of the 442nd Siege Battalion
6:38 We need Boss, Fixer, Gregor, Scorch and Sev in missions like 1st battle of Geonosis, Sarrish, Abafar when Gregor joins the Deltas, RAC Prosecutor, and Kashyyyk when the Deltas(not Scorch), Nemec, Fireball, and Quinlan Vos rescued Sev were Operation 66 was activated
Wait. Red skinned people? Oh my god there alien Red Skulls. No wonder the Republic had to try and win, if the Nazi joined the CIS then we'd be in real trouble! LOL.
Hey wait, I know this is an old video, but I got a question. If the 212th Attack battalion was only battalion size, which is to say, 576 troops, then how grand of a loss could this battle have been? I’m wondering about the scale of this battle, because it is said to be one of the Republics greatest losses, each side should have at least thousands of soldiers, especially considering this is a planet-wide attack. Am I missing something? Because the numbers seem off. P.S I really enjoy your channel man.
Disney is making Star Wars stuff kid friendly now. That’s likely not gonna happen. They Changed “Slave leia” into “Huttslayer leia”. I’ve always wanted a live action battle of Mimban, Sarrish, and Mustafar.
Colenol Major Meeber Gaskon: You were reported MIA during the battle of Sarrish. Gregor: What what was the battle of sarrish? Meeber Gaskon It was one of the republics most devistating losses
The secret to defeating the high ground is a combination of distracting frontal assault followed by a rapid flanking pincer maneuver. But one on one *high ground always wins.*
And that's why deep strike ops and artillery bombardment are things to be beheld whilst thinking about air support. Also, splitting up the Kenobi/Skywalker team is always a big mistake, end quote. On a sidenote, that's one more Legends comic storyline that actually is part of the Alt-universe, despite the embargo saying otherwise.
I hope in season 7 of Star Wars The Clone Wars they show us the battle of sharrish and the depth story of it when Cody and Obi Wan was there along with how Gregor escaped the planet
Fish this battle is so painful. 1- they took aircraft to get past Anti-aircraft guns (then why are the guns even there); 2- the gunner got sniped when he turned on Cody (then why couldn't they have done that sooner??)
Disney, may i present you? The supperior TRUE CLONE WARS. Feloni didnt do anything to safe legends, he basicaly eased the clone wars by taking away the WARS from CLONE WARS. Another of the many reasons why Legends is supperior.
I have a feeling that the battle of sarrish is very similar to the d-day landing zone "Omaha" except the republic had to retreat because of bigger losses
ninja master builder nah it’s not George Lucas made many arcs that resemble past history like the umbara arc represents the Vietnam war and the second Battle of Geonosis resembles the D-Day invasion
Whenever you were talking about the reason for why the battle happened, somehow I instantly knew it would be because of location. Maybe I could have made a better commander than the Jedi! Or maybe I could have just watched a little too many of your vids...
This battle makes me very angry. sending in only one battalion to take an entrenched position of easily a regiment. And what's more they could have landed anywhere but they chose the low ground
